Paul, Daniel, et al.:
Mea culpa! User error: using the pdflscape package does work when
pdflatex
is run, but the output is not seen using dvips. See attached

Carpe weekend,

I opened your document and viewed it using PDF (pdflatex), PDF
(dvipdfm), PDF (ps2pdf) and also exported to DVI and ran dvips on it
manually, then viewed the PS file. (I don't have a built in converter
for that last one.) In every case, I deleted the contents of the LyX
temp directory first, to avoid one method contaminating the next one.
All four approaches produced a table in landscape orientation. With the
first and third (pdflatex and ps2pdf), the last page was "sideways" in
the PDF file (meaning the text was "right side up" to the viewer but the
"paper" was rotated). With the second and fourth (dvipdfm and dvips),
the last page was narrow end up but the text was rotated sideways.
So all four had a landscape final page, although I'm not sure whether a
printer would get the last page right or not. (I'm too environmentally
conscious to test it.)
